Yes one yesterday evening to tell me that it should arrive at Perth airport at around 1500 hrs today, but will take 6 hrs to unload and so will not be available until Monday as Custom agents don't work weekends!

No sleepless nights but frustrated days as I am on leave at the moment until Sunday, so I could be out testing and setting it up. Instead I will have to wait still, and the Mango will be sat at home pilotless while I am at work

Sorry to be the bearer of bad news but your customs agents will take a few days to sort things too. Its more than just "sign here and collect it".

I will do but for the price of the velomobile I wasn't keen on trusting it to a cheap eBay special alarm system ... the better ones seem to be a touch more expensive. Will investigate down the track in more depth but.
